People who are upset at this have no idea that almost every program now contains AI-generated code. Even if you make a program without AI, it's likely the underlying libraries are using AI. It's incredibly useful. For example, the Linux kernel: www.pcgamer.com/software/lin...

It seems to me that is not an argument against being upset. It is an argument to be even more upset. Slop was snuck onto our systems without consent, and then "well we did it six months ago and didn't tell you, so it's too late" is supposed to calm us down instead of making us more angry.

I'm going to have to switch to NetBSD and I'm annoyed.

I cannot imagine bragging that your engineers don't do their job and get an environment-destroying autocomplete to do it for them instead. Wow.

Actually that is the engineering job now

The engineering job is autogenerating slop and posting it quickly to "save time"? Or the engineering job is to autogenerate slop and then spend just as much time trying to fix it, because any competent artisan can explain to you why autogenerated slop is hallucinatory waste? Do your own job maybe

The engineering job is using agents to develop software.

I'm sorry that nobody likes your skeets, but talking to strangers about how hallucination-generators are the workflow of the enlightened isn't going to fix it

What?

I don't enjoy talking to you and nobody else seems to, either. Not even members of your own slop cult. Experts know AI spits out garbage 30% of the time minimum, so please stop going up to strangers online to say "well actually" There, now you don't have to ask Claude to summarize anything for you.

God, why are all you tech people like this? And can you please, please fucking stop??

explains why the UI has gotten worse over time

Really though, I can't watch embedded youtube vids on mobile anymore. Been like a month now?

~vibecoding~

Is that why video desync is still a problem years later? And we still can't send images in DM? Because the developers aren't even coding the damn site themselves anymore? What made any of you think this is what your MILLIONS of users wanted?

Does the fact you are using the same tool that’s picking out which Iranian children to slaughter bother you at all or

Considering how bsky treats Palestinians it probably wishes attie could directly contribute more somehow

And you're not EMBARRASSED by that? EW.

SERIOUSLY!!

is that why none of you can figure out the basic things everyone wants?

Why don't you make those things

My guess is that they aren't a bsky employee to start.

Yeah but anybody is allowed to build social media platforms these days.

Goddamn you really dont want this platform to succeed do you?

She's already announced she's leaving, so yeah, she doesn't care.

is that why it sucks so bad?

This explains why its so bad at times.

very exciting post! perhaps this will be the beginning of bluesky finally becoming usable again by virtue of a bunch of insufferable motherfuckers ragequitting :)

honestly once you do some blocking (and getting blocked, since it's two-way) and muting and use this For You feed and interact a bit, it's pretty good these days! same as the other site, you've just done all that work already bsky.app/profile/did:...

this mute list does a lot of work for me i think bsky.app/profile/did:...

some good excerpts from my For You just now!

That's cool I guess. I on the other hand like to make things with my big huge brain and hands

You rn

Oh. Well...there goes all my previous good will for this platform.

it’s cute how you think she cares

Awww, you called me cute. ❤️

probably should stop doing that before the bubble bursts, I say this with all love and courtesy, Jay

Well that’s embarrassing for them

This explains why it's shit.

BlueSky is made with people like us, without us your social network is nothing, just an empty space We had the courage to leave Twitter and we'll do it again if necessary, keep this in mind for your next development decisions

So thats why you guys dont add the easiest shit like an edit button?

Serious question: are you trying to get people to hate you on purpose?

it was obvious from how non functioning it is, yes. can your hallucination machine hurry up and give us images in DMs.

Well that fucking sucks. Do better.

This is not the brag you think it is.

We can tell, every time the site tells us an English post is in Tamil or something.

Rad. We really made a horrifying mistake replacing hobbyist forums with social media run by Silicon Valley dolts who all desperately jump on the latest stupid trend from FOMO. Never mind that it produces little but garbage.

Yeah, we’ve seen the automated moderation.

Ah I understand better why the search engine is so bad. (Very very often not able to indicate a single result even when the searched word IS in the post I wanted to find.)

Why? As a former software developer, what does this do besides give your engineers more time to slack off?

Does it invent novel solutions? Does it help you grow as a coder? Does it make code that scales and is understandable by other members of your team? Or is it just a way to play on easy mode? That is, until it breaks and you realize that you can't fix the problem because you didn't write it yourself

Bum.

That's not a good thing either.

So. Y'all getting paid to do nothing while an AI does your jobs *horribly*? That's capitalism, baby. WAFFLES.

Is that why basic requested features are ignored and the site runs like dog shit at times?

That explains a lot!

yikes.

Yeah, you probably shouldn’t brag about that, considering stuff seems to just break on this site sometimes for no reason.

Not gonna lie, that's not a very good endorsement for AI

AI isn’t innovative, babe. It’s lazy.

Yet people 20 years ago we're still able to make a website without generative AI slop

Believe me Jay. Believe me when I say we can tell

NOBODY WANTS THIS

And yet… no edit post option 🤷🏼‍♀️

Blink twice if you are held hostage.

🤮

Yeah we can tell, my notifications haven't worked in weeks.

That explains why your pages load 251k of HTML and have elements with 15 levels of nesting I guess 🤷

thank you for this honeypot of AI perverts to block. first useful feature you’ve introduced since i made an account

There's a lot of horrible things that we may be unable to opt out of, nothing is completely ethically made and there will usually be a downside to every innovation. But why add more when it isn't necessary? Aim for harm reduction and alternative ways forward rather than leaning in to AI on purpose.

Tell them to stop doing that.

Then add a disclaimer on Bluesky.

ily jay

Cool. Good. Awesome.

You know that is why the new version of windows randomly breaks and costs millions to fix and causes obscene amounts of damage to its customers right? It doesn't matter if it "works" "right now" it won't later when any other changes are made. Stop this immediately, audit all ai code and replace it.

Is that why the Android app is ass?

Ask Claude where all the users are

360° jump no scope shooting our own brand feet... 😬

WE KNOW

Why would you brag about this Hell, why would you ADMIT this

Someone clip this as proof that AI does nothing well...

This isn't the flex you think it is considering all the UI problems and lack of key features lmao

Lol, lmao, rofl I look forwards to the vibe coding bugs overwhelming the site How long do your engineers spend fixing the bullshit nonsense the hallucination machine that is Claude shoves into “their” code? Bet you it’s longer than if they just coded it all themselves in the first place!

Is it time to burn down my bluesky account then?

Huh. Doesn't the app lack basic features and break all the time? I wonder if it's related.

That explains so much and none of it is good, Jay.

Must be why it's always broken

JINX

That explains a lot.

And sometimes we can fucking tell.

I mean, that does explain why it's a janky mess.

This is not something to brag about. This is actually horrifying.

You had to make sure everybody knew this, right? 🤣

They're even using AI to write windows : www.techradar.com/pro/a-shocki... Coincidentally : www.techradar.com/computing/wi...

So this site has been trifling from the beginning. Is anyone actually capable of putting hard work in their tech?!

this explains a lot

sorry but Claude code will not pass the standard today along with Grok Gemini 2.0 and further on...

Well no fucking wonder

Ew.

You realize that a massive amount of people joined this site SPECIFICALLY to...avoid bots and ai...right?

Wow, is THAT why the fuckin thing keeps throwing errors for 2-3 hours every few days?

Ew

Omg. I’m liking this platform and then you say this. Stop it. Stop stealing the electricity and the water for AI. Just give us a non-Nazi Twitter

Why would you have people who do not know how to code coding?

Why would you brag about that? That's not a good thing.

How embarrassing

As long as this is a basic factual statement, and not a threat, a flex, or an attempt at a justification.

I love getting my daily slop with the rest of the hogs

wow these days it's expected to use ai

People hating AI using the website designed for and by ai tech bro furries simply because they dislike the fact they can't bot their likes on twitter anymore is funny.

Yeah that checks out. A wonder why it hasn’t improved productivity enough to add all the user requested features. Too much time debugging the AI code?

I really hope this is a joke for April Fools 🗿

Based. Can you ask your AI to allow me to collapse threads in thread view :-)? Major usability issue for me!

See! You’re ok saying publicly, now make everyone else disclose it too.

Oof, seems like we need to find different social media sites. 😒
